Young Carmine McDaniel left out a cooler stuffed full of water and Gatorade on the porch of his house recently, with a note telling the mailman to dig in. "Have a good day :)" he added.

McDaniel explained his thinking to local reporters. "I just thought because it was really hot outside and I didn't want him to maybe pass out or anything, because they are really important so people can pay their bills and stuff like that and I didn't want him to pass out pretty much," he said.

"Water and Gatorade. Thank you. Oh my God, yeah," the mailman says as he discovers the box, in a video sent in to a local station by McDaniel's proud mother.
